COMP Cams Camshaft Kit CS XR288HR-10

If you're looking to wake up the performance of your 1987 and newer Chevrolet small block engine, this COMP Cams Xtreme Energy camshaft kit is a solid choice. This kit is designed for street/strip applications and works well with engines that have at least 9:1 compression, intake and header upgrades, and appropriate gearing. It's built for engines that will see higher RPMs, typically requiring a 3000+ stall speed torque converter to get the most out of it. Expect a noticeable, rougher idle with this camshaft, which is characteristic of its aggressive performance profile.

This kit includes everything you need to get the camshaft installed and running: the camshaft itself, a set of hydraulic roller lifters, a complete timing chain set, assembly lube to ensure proper break-in, and decals. The XR288HR-10 camshaft features a 236-degree intake duration and a 242-degree exhaust duration at .050 inch lift, with .520 inch lift on both intake and exhaust. These specifications are well-suited for modified small block Chevys, helping to increase airflow and power output, especially in the mid to upper RPM range. It's designed to work with factory roller camshaft setups, making installation more straightforward than a flat tappet conversion.

This kit is a comprehensive package for enthusiasts looking to significantly enhance their engine's performance. It's important to note that this camshaft is intended for off-road use and is not CARB approved, meaning it cannot be legally shipped to California. Ensure your engine is properly set up with supporting modifications like headers and an appropriate stall converter to maximize the benefits of this Xtreme Energy camshaft.
